What Does a Wealth Management Solicitor Do?

A wealth management solicitor helps with the legal side of protecting, organising and transferring wealth.

​

This may involve preparing or reviewing a Will, creating trusts, planning for Inheritance Tax, considering succession arrangements and helping make sure your estate is structured around your long-term wishes.

​

At MDW Solicitors, we look at how different areas of legal planning work together rather than treating each decision in isolation.

​

Our wealth management work can connect with:

​

  • Estate Planning

  • Wills

  • Trusts

  • Lifetime Inheritance Tax Planning

  • Succession and inheritance planning

  • Lasting Powers of Attorney

Wealth Management Solicitor vs Financial Adviser

A wealth management solicitor and a financial adviser can both play an important role in planning for the future, but they provide different types of advice.

​

A solicitor focuses on the legal structures surrounding your assets and estate. This can include Wills, trusts, succession planning, inheritance arrangements and legal tax planning.

​

A financial adviser will usually focus on matters such as investments, pensions, financial products and wider financial planning.

​

There are circumstances where both types of advice may be relevant. Decisions involving pensions, investments, lifetime gifts or succession can have both legal and financial consequences.

​

MDW Solicitors Director Andrew Stocker also has extensive financial-planning experience through his work with AMS Wealth Management. This gives the firm valuable insight into how legal and financial planning can interact, while keeping each area within its appropriate professional role.

Estate & Inheritance Planning

Effective estate planning helps you decide how your assets should be managed during your lifetime and passed on in the future.

​

We can advise on:

​

  • Wills and succession planning

  • Trust creation and structuring

  • Appointing executors and trustees

  • Protecting vulnerable beneficiaries

  • Long-term inheritance arrangements

 

A properly structured estate plan can help reduce uncertainty and make your wishes clearer for those you leave behind.

Inheritance Tax Planning
 

Inheritance Tax can significantly affect the value ultimately passed to your loved ones. As part of wider wealth and estate planning, we can advise on:

​

  • Tax-efficient lifetime gifting

  • Trust structures

  • Available exemptions and reliefs

  • Will and succession planning

  • Lifetime Inheritance Tax Planning

 

The right approach depends on your assets, family circumstances and long-term objectives. You can learn more about our dedicated Lifetime Inheritance Tax Planning service.

When Should You Speak to a Private Wealth Solicitor?

Private wealth planning is not limited to exceptionally wealthy families.

​

You may benefit from specialist legal advice if:

​

  • You own property or substantial savings

  • Your estate may be affected by Inheritance Tax

  • You want to pass wealth to children or grandchildren

  • You have a blended family

  • You are considering lifetime gifts

  • You want to protect a vulnerable beneficiary

  • Your existing Will no longer reflects your circumstances

  • You want your Will, trusts and estate planning reviewed together

 

Taking advice early can give you more time to consider your options properly.
